requesting lucid SRU now that the fix has landed in oneiric ** Description changed:
I have Ubuntu 9.04 configured in a multi-monitor Xinerama setup of a centre monitor 1600x1200 and two smaller monitors 1280x1024 on either side i.e. different resolutions across the screens. In Ubuntu 9.04 gnome-screenshot now black/blanks-out the top 210 pixels of any screenshot I take of an individual window (i.e. Alt-Printscreen) regardless of which monitor I take it on. The number of pixels blanked out seems dependent on the difference in the y-offset across the screens as configured in xorg.conf. Taking a screenshot of the whole desktop works properly. The problem did not occur at all in Ubuntu 8.10. Here's the relevant extract from my xorg.conf: Section "ServerLayout" - Identifier "Layout0" - Screen 0 "ScreenCentre" 1280 0 - Screen 1 "ScreenLeft" 0 210 - Screen 2 "ScreenRight" 2880 210 - Option "Xinerama" "On" + Identifier "Layout0" + Screen 0 "ScreenCentre" 1280 0 + Screen 1 "ScreenLeft" 0 210 + Screen 2 "ScreenRight" 2880 210 + Option "Xinerama" "On" EndSection Note that the left and right monitors are slightly lower on my desk than the centre monitor so I've set their y-offsets in xorg.conf to 210 pixels (from what otherwise should be 1200-1024=176 pixels) so that when I drag windows between monitors the widows appear at the same level. I'll attach a screenshot of the whole desktop to illustrate the xorg offsets, and screenshots of individual windows which illustrate the problem. + + STATUS UPDATE: what's left to be done is the lucid SRU, thank you. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-utils in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/379382 Title: gnome-screenshot (Alt-Printscreen) black/blanks out top of windows in multi monitor xinerama To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/gnome-utils/+bug/379382/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
